QA Test Lead – Project Management

Midvale, UT / Remote
Contract
$58.50-$61.50

Job Description:

We are seeking a senior QA Test Lead to provide strategic quality assurance leadership for a large-scale technology project. This role will oversee the QA lifecycle across multiple teams, ensuring testing processes, release readiness, and quality standards are consistently followed. The position will serve as the primary QA point of contact for project stakeholders, providing visibility into testing progress, risks, defects, and overall release health. This is a leadership and oversight role rather than a hands-on testing position.

The QA Test Lead will work closely with QA leads, automation teams, developers, business analysts, product owners, and release management to establish and maintain effective QA processes. Responsibilities include managing testing priorities, removing blockers, coordinating cross-team activities, and ensuring teams follow established processes and standards. The role will also oversee QA reporting and metrics through Azure DevOps (ADO), support weekly production release readiness, and help maintain the documentation and evidence required for compliance and audit reviews.

The ideal candidate has senior-level QA leadership experience, a strong understanding of the software development lifecycle, and the ability to lead distributed teams without direct management authority. They should be comfortable working in an Agile environment with two-week sprints and weekly production releases. Experience with Salesforce is beneficial, particularly an understanding of how configuration and code changes affect testing plans. nCino experience is also helpful but not required. The successful candidate will provide strategic direction, support QA team leads, and help maintain production stability across multiple concurrent initiatives.

Required Skills:
• Senior-level experience leading QA teams or overseeing quality assurance functions for large technology projects
• Strong understanding of the software development lifecycle, testing methodologies, and release management
• Experience establishing, implementing, and maintaining QA processes and standards
• Experience managing QA activities across multiple teams, workstreams, or geographically distributed groups
• Ability to establish and enforce QA processes within Azure DevOps (ADO)
• Experience developing and maintaining QA metrics, dashboards, and recurring status reports
• Ability to monitor testing progress, identify risks, remove blockers, and manage escalations
• Experience overseeing regression readiness, production release readiness, and software quality
• Understanding of Agile delivery practices, including sprint planning and ongoing release cycles
• Experience coordinating with QA leads, automation teams, developers, product owners, and business stakeholders
• Strong leadership, prioritization, problem-solving, and stakeholder management skills
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, including the ability to report QA status and risks to senior leadership
• Experience maintaining QA documentation, testing evidence, and processes that support compliance and audit requirements

Bonus/Soft Skills:
• Salesforce experience, including an understanding of configuration changes and their impact on testing
• nCino platform experience
• Experience supporting financial services or banking technology projects
• Familiarity with Zions EPMS standards or similar enterprise project management and testing standards
• Experience working with automation leads and large QA organizations
• Experience collaborating with Release Management teams on production deployments
• Experience supporting globally distributed teams across U.S. and international locations
• Ability to provide occasional support outside standard business hours for urgent issues or escalations
• Strong coaching and mentoring skills, with the ability to guide QA leads and enable teams without direct authority
